Psalms 77
1 Unto the end, for Idithun, a psalm of Asaph. I cried to the Lord with my voice; to God with my voice, and he gave ear to me.
Wɔde ma dwonkyerɛfo. Wɔde ma Yedutun. Asaf dwom. Misu mefrɛɛ Onyankopɔn srɛɛ mmoa; misu mefrɛɛ no sɛ ontie me.
2 In the day of my trouble I sought God, with my hands lifted up to him in the night, and I was not deceived. My soul refused to be comforted:
Bere a mewɔ ahohiahia mu no, mehwehwɛɛ Awurade; metrɛw me nsa a ɛmpa abaw mu anadwo na me kra ampene sɛ wɔbɛkyekye ne werɛ.
3 I remembered God, and was delighted, and was exercised, and my spirit swooned away.
Onyankopɔn mekaee wo, na misii apini; medwenee, na me honhom tɔɔ beraw.
4 My eyes prevented the watches: I was troubled, and I spoke not.
Woamma mʼani ankum; amanehunu dodow nti, mantumi ankasa.
5 I thought upon the days of old: and I had in my mind the eternal years.
Medwenee nna a atwam no ho, teteete mfe no ho;
6 And I meditated in the night with my own heart: and I was exercised and I swept my spirit.
mekaee me nnwom a na meto no anadwo. Me koma dwenee ho na me honhom bisae se:
7 Will God then cast off for ever? or will he never be more favourable again?
“Enti, Awurade bɛpo yɛn daa? Ɔrenhu yɛn mmɔbɔ bio ana?
8 Or will he cut off his mercy for ever, from generation to generation?
Nʼadɔe a ɛnsa da atu ayera koraa ana? Na ne bɔhyɛ no, amma mu koraa ana?
9 Or will God forget to shew mercy? or will he in his anger shut up his mercies?
Onyankopɔn werɛ afi sɛ ɔbɛyɛ mmɔborɔhunufo ana? Ɔde abufuw atwe nʼayamhyehye no asan ana?”
10 And I said, Now have I begun: this is the change of the right hand of the most High.
Afei misusuwii se, “Eyi de, mɛsrɛ: mfe a Ɔsorosoroni no teɛɛ ne nsa nifa mu no.”
11 I remembered the works of the Lord: for I will be mindful of thy wonders from the beginning.
Mɛkae nneɛma a Awurade ayɛ; yiw, mɛkae wo tete anwonwade no.
12 And I will meditate on all thy works: and will be employed in thy inventions.
Mɛdwene wo nnwuma nyinaa ho na masusuw wo nneyɛe akɛse nyinaa ho.
13 Thy way, O God, is in the holy place: who is the great God like our God?
Onyankopɔn, wʼakwan yɛ kronkron. Onyame bɛn na ɔso sɛ yɛn Nyankopɔn?
14 Thou art the God that dost wonders. Thou hast made thy power known among the nations:
Wone Onyankopɔn a woyɛ anwonwade; wokyerɛ wo tumi wɔ aman mu.
15 With thy arm thou hast redeemed thy people the children of Jacob and of Joseph.
Wode wo tumi nsa no gyee wo nkurɔfo, Yakob ne Yosef asefo no.
16 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee: and they were afraid, and the depths were troubled.
Onyankopɔn, nsu no huu wo, nsu no huu wo na wɔpopoe; bun no mpo ho wosowee.
17 Great was the noise of the waters: the clouds sent out a sound. For thy arrows pass:
Omununkum tɔɔ nsu, aprannaa gyigyee wɔ ɔsoro; na wo bɛmma paa gya dii akɔneaba.
18 The voice of thy thunder in a wheel. Thy lightnings enlightened the world: the earth shook and trembled.
Wʼaprannaa bobɔɔ mu wɔ mfɛtɛ no mu, wʼanyinam hyerɛn wiase; asase popoe, na ɛwosowee.
19 Thy way is in the sea, and thy paths in many waters: and thy footsteps shall not be known.
Wode wo kwan faa po mu, wode faa nsu kɛse mu, nanso wɔanhu wʼanammɔn.
20 Thou hast conducted thy people like sheep, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
Wonam Mose ne Aaron abasa so, dii wo nkurɔfo anim sɛ nguankuw.
